Blog 4.3 - Boys to Men!

So, we have read about princesses and beauty, but Jungle Book is largely about men and boys. Think about these characters:

Mowgli - The boy

Bagheera - The Panther

Baloo - The Bear

Colonel Hahti - The Elephant

Kaa - The Snake

The Buzzards

Sheer Khan — The Tiger

Very quickly, think about their characteristics and write out their names with an adjective describes them, then finish with a MAJOR CLAIM (an one sentence argument that you intend to prove in a paper/paragraph). These sentence should have three elements that this movie subtly claims about men (who they are or what they should be). Hint: think about the song at the end (the one the little village girl sings: “I’ll send her to fetch the water/I’ll be cooking in the home . . .”)
